The latest
fad I observe in our business scenario is to be part of RESTAURANT business !

The path
which lot of them undertake but only few survive !

I always
joke with my buddies , that if 10 new
outlets open, 15 close.

The picture
looks bright from outside but there are lot of shades of grey as you start
venturing into it.

Today we
will discuss some critical issues which are responsible for death of an F&B
outlet.

1.PRODUCT CONCEPT

Design a
product concept before you finalize on space and production and dining designs.

Lot of us
make hasty decisions, and we first finalize
a space and even go to extent of designing our kitchens and then we think ….What should I
sell?

It has to be other way around. Start with segment we want to cater to Product to Production Equipment leading to Production Design and subesequently restaurant seating space and logistics of service.

2.PROJECT CAPITAL AND WORKING
CAPITAL:

Do I have the dough? Yes I have ! I
want to make it big by filling stomachs and I will be rich overnight-------MYTH

You have to logically go into
Project Cost Budgeting and yes do not forget the gestation period for your baby
to be healthy ! It can be anywhere between 6 to 10 months and in some cases
even more.And you need the most important resource, which I call Oxygen -WORKING
CAPITAL
